Chair’s Report (see attached)
• Robin welcomed past chair, Laura Emch, back from medical leave and
presented her with a plague for her services as ASC Chair, 2002-2003.
• Robin and Joe met with Donna Whitwer and Becca Ferguson, Human
Resources (HR), to discuss: ?? New Kronos System and its use by University employees. Student Employees are currently the
only staff members who are being asked to use this system. Departments are being phased in to ensure the
most effective implementation of this system. Although there is the potential for permanent staff members to utilize this
system, there are no current plans to implement this system campus-wide for all employees.
New employees may now complete training on sexual harassment, fire
safety, etc. on-line as part of their orientation.
Delta Dental will cover the University’s new dental plan. More
information about this network plan will be available in October during
BGSU’s open enrollment period. Changes in prescription drug co-pays
are also expected.
